1996 Tenuta San Guido Sassicaia

92 pts - Wine Advocate

91 pts - Wine Spectator

A well-structured Sass, with plenty of blackberry and dried herb character. Full-bodied, with plenty of ripe tannins and a currant bush and herb finish. Give it time to develop. Best after 2001. 13,000 cases made. — JS (11/1999)

87 pts - Vinous

Fresh, moderately deep ruby-red. Spicy, lively aromas of cinnamon and vanilla. Round in flavor and rather elegantly styled, but doesn't offer the weight or impact of a major wine. ST
